ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the operative main point and clinical effects of laparoscopic treatment for hepatic cyst. Methods Between August 2006 and April 2009, Forty-eight cases of laparoscopic treatment for hepatic cyst were performed, and the data were analyzed retrospectively. Of these treatments, there were laparoscopic fenestration (46 cases) and laparoscopic anatomical resection of left hepatic lobe (2 cases). Of the patients, there were solitary cyst (41 cases) and multiple cyst (7 cases). Results Fortyeight cases all performed laparoscopic treatment successfully. There were no converting to open operation, no biliary leakage and no bleeding. Except for resection of left hepatic lobe, the operating time was 30 -96 minutes (mean, 45 minutes), the intraoperative blood loss was 10 -90 mL (mean, 26 mL) and the postoperative hospital stay was 3 - 9 days (mean, 5 days). All the 48 patients were followed up for 6 to 36 months (mean, 32 months), 2 cases were found recurrence. Conclusions Affluent experience and proper standard of operation are key points for avoiding recurrence and complication in laparoscopic treatment for hepatic cyst. Laparoscopic treatment for hepatic cyst is safe, characterized by less pain and rapid recovery.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the surgical skills and clinical efficacy of laparoscopic splenectomy (LS). Methods The operative duration, perioperative blood loss and postoperative complications were determined in 42 patients receiving LS in our hospital from October 2006 to May 2008 were retrospectively analyzed. Of the 42 patients, 12 suffered from splenomegaly due to blood disease, 1 from splenic tuberculosis, 1 from splenic cyst, 4 from traumatic splenic rupture,1 from malignant lymphoma and 23 from hypersplenism due to portal hypertension. Results LS was successfully performed in all the 42 patients. The mean perioperative blood loss was (300±110.60)ml, average operative duration (170±45.65) min (60-260 min) and mean postoperative inhospitalization duration (8.10±3.52)d. There was no severe complication after the operation. Conclusion For most types of splenic diseases, LS is safe and feasible. It is crucial to manage the splenic pedicle according to disease type, size, morphology and splenic hilus.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the operative main points and clinical effects of LC treatment for acute calculous cholecystitis. Methods Between August 2006 and June 2008, LC treatment for acute calculous cholecystitis in 120 cases as performed, the data of which were analyzed retrospectively. Of these patients, there were gallbladder with adherent omentum (72 cases), gallbladder with adherent hepatic flexture of the colon (9 cases), gallbladder with duodenum (5 cases), obstruction of the cystic duet by a gllstone (68 cases), and Mirizzi syndrome(2 cases). Results All the 120 cases performed LC successfully. There were no converting to open operation, and no biliary leakage. The mean operating time was (45. 0 ± 13. 1) minutes. Conclusions Acute calculous cholecystitis was not a contraindication for LC. Rich experience and skilled technique were key points for the success of operation. It shows advantages of less pain, less complications and more rapid recovery.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>FUS2 gene locating at 3p21.3 is considered a promising candidate tumor suppressor gene. The aim of this study is to examine the difference in FUS2-767A/T polymorphism site between lung cancer patients and normal controls in Chinese population.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The genotype FUS2-767A/T was detected in 146 lung cancer patients and 113 normal controls by PCR-SSCP method. The relationship between lung cancer risk and difference in genotypes of FUS2 gene was analysed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>FUS2-767A/T was significantly related to histological type (P=0.044), age of the patients with lung cancer (P=0.011) and vessel cancer embolus (P=0.031) in lung cancer group. There was no significant difference in distribution of FUS2 genotypes between lung cancer patients and normal controls (P=0.945).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The results suggest that the FUS2-767A/T polymorphism may be a susceptibility factor for lung cancer among Chinese population.</p>
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the relationship between the white blood cell (WBC) count of peripheral blood at the early stage of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and the prognosis.Methods 100 cases of AMI were divided into normal WBC counts and elevated WBC counts group.Clinical characteristics of the two groups were compared.Results The cases of AMI with leukocytosis is apt to complicate left ventricular failure,arrhythmia and excitable hyperglycemia.The peak value of CK and ECG QRS scoring as well as mortality were elevated.Conclusion The WBC has an important prognostic significance in AMI.
